re: #9 Obdicut

I don’t think this is anything inherent in Christianity or in Islam; it’s just history.

Bingo.

One thing that struck me, reading the history of the Hebron Massacre in 1920 was that some Jews survived because they had Muslim neighbors who took them in and hid them, or otherwise protected them. It’s remarkable similar to the stories that come out of the Shoah, where some remarkable Christians were moved to act on their conscience, rather than the society around them’s prejudice, and protect their Jewish friends and neighbors.

People is people. There is no such thing as a special religion which changes all the rules.
